The Pines Campground at Araps - What's happening! 13-Feb-2012 At 12:28:35 PM Camalittle
Message
Having just come back from a weekend at Araps I was shocked at the amount of tree lopping that has gone on lately. There were at least 10 more Pines chopped down in the last week or two, both in The Pines and The Gums campgrounds. There also doesn't seem to be a tree replacement program happening, or at least one that is keeping pace with the culling. If this continues, soon we will simply have a hot wind swept wasteland to camp in.

Yes I know Pines are a weed and there is another whole argument about what type of trees are suitable; What we need are trees thet provide shade, don't drop limbs and cut down the wind - Pines are better than nothing!

Does anyone know if there is a clear plan from DSE or Parks for our beloved campground? Our are they just chopping and clearing without a plan?
